5.3 Heater Placement
The primary consideration for the placement of the heater is the location of the hot air
outlet and the return air opening. These openings cannot be blocked with freight or other
objects. For good circulation and the most even heat, cargo should not be within 6 feet
straight out from these openings (it may be below them). As a result, the heater should be
mounted high enough to allow this without sacrificing too much cargo space. Mounting
the heater with the hot air outlet ¾ of the way up from the bottom of the trailer (or
slightly less) is a good compromise between lost cargo space and the reduced air
movement thru the trailer that comes from mounting the heater too close to the top of the
trailer. The heater must also be mounted where there is enough clearance to open the door
when the trailer is hooked up. All these considerations are shown in Drawing 1 below.
